$210 CONUS shipped, add 3% if you don't want to do 'gift' with paypal. Purchased July 13, 2011 (as shown on the pic). It comes with extra blue key caps from Topre (for the numeral pad). It's being replaced with a lovely tenkeyless 45g, otherwise its in perfect working condition. Space bar is a little shiny which happens with these ABS Topre space bars. Comes with original black numeral pad key caps as well, and original packaging along with receipt from EK (as shown in pics). Message me if interested, firm on price.

edit: adding in purple WASD (lettered) and option of white key caps for numeral pad instead of blue caps

Is this 103ub the uniform 55g model or the variably weighted model?

pardon my ignorance, but what's the benefit to having the keys variably weighted as opposed to uniform??

The keys you regularly use your pinky are lighter so it's less force required to press them, and the Esc key is 55g so you need a bit more force so you don't accidentally press it

Yeah, some people prefer variable over uniform because of their pinkies mainly. I prefer 55 gram Topre keyboards myself. Although, the 45g weight does feel good at times as well. Thanks for Good luck Tsangan, and Hashbaz.

I prefer 55g as well. The only Topre keyboard I like is the 55g version, the others like variable, 45g, and 30g versions taste like nothing. HHKB is sort of between 55g and 45g though I hate the layout on it.

GLWS!

How much is shipping for one key, in CONUS? I would part with it $3, plus shipping (keep in mind also, I don't have any more padded envelopes, if that matters with this particular key (small plastic only).

To above poster, would ship to Canada from Seattle, shipping is from $28.65, to about $35.00 dollars. I have 10 dollars factored in for shipping (CONUS) so minus the 10, and its about $18.65 ($228.65) to $25.00 ($235) dollars more depending on where in Canada. People need to know international shipping costs (it costs a lot more folks!), before acquiring and then acting surprised about the price!

If you have an extra Topre red escape key, I'm looking for one as well. :)

I have another one in the mail (lettered, I am assuming as well), along with my all 45g board. Willing to let go of each one for $3 plus shipping (so 5$ dollars), or I'll just include them with this board!

Adding option for white numeral pad key caps instead of blue, its buyer's choice
